Hint: In the first start of the DALI pro tool application the search for LAN devices will typically be blocked by the windows firewall. The access must be allowed and the tool must be restarted to use the now no longer blocked access.

Enable the connect by LAN functionality

(If connection of the device by USB and LAN, the LAN connection will be hidden).


v.2.0 15/87

6. Setup of the LAN configuration of the controller

The LAN configuration of the DALI pro controller can only be changed by USB connection. After the connecting the LAN properties are visible by selection of “Controller” in the tree. Over the icon can be open the dialog to change these properties.

Please note following:

- After changing the LAN configuration of the PC (plug in network cable or activate W-LAN), the DALI PRO software must be restarted to adopt the new LAN settings.

- To use DHCP a DHCP server is required (this is usually a router function). If the LAN is only needed for picking or for the smartphone app then DHCP is preferred.

- A LAN-connection of different DALI PRO controllers requires a fixed IP address (disable DHCP).

- Modification of the TCP / IP connection is only necessary in certain cases (permanent firewall or in the case of conflicts of port duplication). After changing the TCP / IP port, the controller must be restarted (disconnect from the USB cable and power returns).

v.2.0 21/87

4.2 ECG Localization

A separate dialog is available for the ECG localization. Depending on the filter settings, a list of devices will be shown that shall be localized. From this devices the actual selected is blinking.

For the actual selected device can:

- Change the title

- Add to a group (or part of tunable white / RGB device). The group can also be generated from the dialog.

- Merge with virtual and used device. This feature is only visible if any virtual and used devices existi

After this handling the devices will be removed from the list (depending on the actual filter settings).


v.2.0 22/87

If virtual und used ECG existing the merge can be done. Depending on the filter settings the ECG will after merge be masked out.

List of all not already handled ECG - depending on the filter settings.

The actual selected device is blinking.

v.2.0 23/87

The localization function are each time available over the tree context menu or icon if the ECG topic selected in the tree.

4.3 Coupler Localization

The localization is depending of the input type and different for buttons and sensors. Depending on the filter settings devices will be show in a list that has to be localized.

For the actual selected device can:

- Change the title

- Merge with virtual and used device. This feature is only visible if virtual and used devices existing.

The name of the input is combined from two parts, separated by a dot:

[Coupler name]. [Local input name]

And can be changed independent.

For button coupler the color of the cable will be the default local input name. For sensor coupler the name by function will be used as default name "Presence" and "Light sensor".

In the view "Singe Input", the input name is unchanged as long the local input name is not changed (independent if the coupler name part changed).

Replace the ECG by the actual selected (blinking) device.

v.2.0 26/87

5. Create a configuration

5.1 Creating connections and function shortcuts

To generate functions move the input (for example button) and output (for example ECG) by drag and drop into the graph panel.

After this the two boxes can be connected by the mouse (klick on one box and move the arising line to the other box). (Alternatively, it is also possible to move the input from tree to the output already lie on the graph panel.)

With the connection the devices will be fixated in the actual zone (if no zone existing a new zone will be generated).


v.2.0 27/87

As long the devices on the graph panel are not connected (and shown in green) the device belongs to no zone and will be shown, even is the actual selected zone changed, until the device is used. From this reason it is useful to move only this devices on the graph panel that will be used to make the next connection.

For ECG multi selection is also possible with Shift or Ctrl keys pressed (Shift - range, Ctrl - add).

In the groups properties can the group title be changed or the parameters from all ECG in the group be changed.

For easy clean-up it is possible to delete all unused groups by the context menu.

5.2 Upload configuration

Before the upload the configuration must be saved. The upload dialog can be open over the icon.

Select with pressed Shift key

Title of the group changeable

Info about the using of the group

v.2.0 28/87

At first the configuration will be checked for errors. If there no error the upload procedure to the device can be started.

After the upload the ECG with the property "Power On Behavior" set "Go to last level" will go to the state before the upload was started. Optional can the stored light state for these ECG set to on. If set the property to "Go to level" the ECG will apply this level.

With each upload a copy of the project file will be stored with the extension of day and time:

[Project file name][date + time].osrdpc2u

In the path (details depending of the language of windows):

C:\Benutzer\[Benutzername]\Eigene Dokumente\OSRAM\Professional_v2\Upload

Project files with the extension “* osrdpc2u” can be open but not stored with this extension. A copy can be stored with the normal extension “*.osrdpc2” over the icon “save as”.

6.2.2 Hints to HF Sensor

With the DALI Eco remote control the vibration sensitivity and detection range parameter can be changed. If vibration detection enabled, after change of the position of the sensor, all detected motion will be ignored and interpreted as vibration. This state is reset by power cycle of the sensor.

Information the setup procedure by the DALI eco remote control can be found in the "Operating instructions" of the "HF LS LI" sensor.

The green led on the sensor shows motion detection. The reed led shows motion detected but ignored because detection of vibration.

6.2.3 Functionality

For motion detection, different behavior is possible for:

- Automatically light on or not with motion detection.

- Time delayed reduction (for up to 2 steps).

- Switch light off or not after delay time.

The first two points are selected by the "Mode" parameter:

Mode Description

Full automatic Light on with motion detection, auto light of after delay time.

Full automatic, one reduction Light on with motion detection, reduction to standby level after delay time. After second delay time auto light off.

Full automatic, two reductions Light on with motion detection, reduction to standby level after delay time in two steps (with additional delay time). After second delay time auto light off.

Half automatic No light on with motion detection but the motion detection can extend the light on time after manual light on. Auto light of after delay time.


v.2.0 34/87

Half automatic, one reduction No light on with motion detection but the motion detection can extend the light on time after manual light on. Reduction to standby level after delay time without motion detection. Auto light of after second delay time.

Half automatic, two reductions No light on with motion detection but the motion detection can extend the light on time after manual light on. Reduction to standby level after delay time without motion detection in two steps (with additional delay time). Auto light of after third delay time.

Example of the light behavior after one single motion detection in full automatic mode with two reductions. In the half automatic mode the light will only go on with manual light on function (for example button). The motion detection will not switch the light on, but will extend the light on time by restart of the light on time with each motion detection.

Optional the light off function can be disabled and the light can be stay on the reduction level endless.

6.2.4 Button and motion detection

With each button light on functionality the auto switch off by the motion off-timer can be enabled or disabled. If it disabled, the light will never be automatically switched off. In this case, may be optional to enable a special mode that with the next motion detection the light can be changed to the value set in the motion detection function (in normal case is this function suppressed is light already on). For this special feature service mode “Expert I” is necessary.

Will the light be switches off by the button functions, 3 different motion detection behaviors are possible:

Light

Time Motion

detected

Motion detection - level

Reduction step 1 - level

Reduction step 2 - level


v.2.0 35/87

Selection Description

Blocked Motion detection is blocked. No automatically light on.

Activated The motion detection is enabled as soon as possible.

Activated after 30 s The motion detection will enabled in 30 s. If in this time motion detected the time will extend by additional 30 s from each motion detected.

For each button is independent on using by short or double press only one behavior to the motion detection possible.

For all other light functions, connected to switch, RTC timer, sequencer the functionality to the motion detection is equal.

6.3 Light Regulation functions

6.3.1 Parameter

For the regulation 3 parameters are important.

Parameter Description Change by

Regulation value Light target level relative to the installed light output. For example 80 %, to have always the minimum light intensity equivalent to the situation without natural light and the EVG are on 80 % light level.

Application:

- With interactive change of

the regulation value by button

- Start calibration by button

Geometry factor Influence of the room geometry and sensor position. Factor between different sensors values with the same light intensity on the target place illuminated only by artificial light to the situation illuminated only by the daylight with own light off.

Commissioning:

- Property direct

- Single regulation dialog as optimal feature

Hints to the regulation setup:

- Calibration of the sensors without daylight to avoid sensor signal overload.

Adaptation to the real situation by measurement in the interactive calibration dialog.

Target light value relative to the installed light output.

Adaptation to the room geometry and sensor position

Open v1.x regulation dialog to set up interactive regulation value and calibration value to the same time


v.2.0 37/87

- Setup of the regulation value with measurement of the target level without daylight.

- Typical value range for the geometry factor 2 – 3. For ideal situation (no difference for the sensor if the target illuminated by the daylight or artificial light) is 1.

- If the light with daylight on the target to less increase geometry factor (in steps of 0.25 or 0.5). If the light with daylight on the target to high decrease geometry factor.

6.3.2 Auto light off and on

Optional the light can be switched off with enough daylight. Optional it is also possible that goes than the daylight down the light will be automatically switched on again. This function should be used with caution to avoid unexpected light on states.

If "Light can go off" enabled, after dimming down to min level the light will for the "Light off delay" time in this situation and then go off.

If the motion sensor used the light will only inside the motion sensor delay times go on again.

6.3.3 Regulation start

For each regulation on function must exist with the functionality "Regulation".

Application without any manual light control are possible with following boundary conditions:

- The "Power on behavior" and "System failure behavior" for all gears must set to "Go to level".

- Either property "Light can go off" is set to "No" or both properties "Light can go off" and "Light can go auto on" are set to "Yes".

6.3.4 Twilight function

Besides the using of the light level sensor for regulation the twilight function is also possible. After connection of light level sensor with light outputs the regulation function will be automatically generated. From this can be switched to the twilight function.

Switch light off with enough daylight.

Auto light on with to less daylight.

Rotate between alternative functionalities


v.2.0 38/87

The twilight function can switch on/off the light depending on the actual light situation. Together with the motion detection it is also possible to switch on the light after motion detection only if the actual light situation to dark.

For the light level setup there are two types possible depending if the own light visible be the light sensor or not.

6.3.5 Light setup: Automatic setup

If the light sensor can see the own light, the sensor must be calibrated to this light. For calibration the same procedure like for the light regulation will be used. Relative to the maximal possible light output (100 %) the reference light value can be set. The system is than to provide this light level as minimal light level.

If the feature "Light can go auto on" as light on level the "Reference light value" will be used.

6.3.6 Light setup: Manual setup

The "Absolute sensor value" mode is for the case, that the light sensor is not seeing the own light. To get the useful "Reference sensor value" can be used the test function for the light sensor in the ambient situation with the minimal accepted light level for the switch on point.

Minimal accepted relative light level (10% ... 100%) To enable to automatically

v.2.0 40/87

Additional up to 2 delayed actions are possible.

6.4.2 Relay and switch

The input on the push button coupler can be transformed into switch behavior in the tree.

The single parameter for the switch to the relay if invert behavior. The normal case (invert = No) is, if switch on the relay is closed and if the switch off the relay is open. The other case is inverted.

Delay time between button push and action

Time for the relay on time in this example


v.2.0 41/87

6.4.3 Relay and motion detection

With motion detection the relay will be switched on (only in mode: "Full automatic") and switched off after the selected delay time (15 s until 24 hour).

If also the button connected can the mode "Half automatic" be use. The relay can only be switched on manually and will be switched off after the delay time. Motion detection in this time will restart the delay time.

The detailed behavior to enable the motion detection with switch off and start of the delay time with switch on can be set up for each connected button function.

6.4.4 Relay and light sensor

The light sensor can be used to switch on/off the relay depending on the actual light situation. Together with the motion detection it is also possible to switch on the relay after motion detection only if the actual light situation to dark.

For the light level setup there are two types possible.

6.3.5 Light setup: Automatic setup

6.3.6 Light setup: Manual setup

Behaviour for the motion detection after switch off: disable, activated or activated after 30 s delay (to leave the room)

Enable/disable of the automatic switch off timer.


v.2.0 42/87

6.4.5 Dependences to other input controls

If the motion detection and light sensor used together, the light switch on functionality with motion detection can be limited to the situation with not enough light.

If the button input used with button press optional the twilight function can be enabled, disabled, or let unchanged.

7. Advanced features

7.1 Operational Hints

7.1.1 Zone copy

From the context menu in the zone tree from single zones can be make a copy.

Connection between light sensor and motion detection


v.2.0 43/87

For the copy will also be generated copy version of the devices as virtual device. All original names will be extended with "_copy". The virtual devices can then be merged with real devices.

7.1.2 Functions copy and move

The context menu on the action mapping provides different functionality to copy the action mapping with all functions and parameter inclusive the generation of all necessary virtual inputs and outputs.

Also it is possible to move the action mapping into any other zone.

7.1.3 Auto – order functionality

In on zone is a button function to a single ECG "Ballast 1" in "Group 1":


v.2.0 44/87

If the ECG "Ballast 1" also moved into the new "Zone 2" the new group "Group 2 will be generated automatically (optional "Group 1" can be used be shift of "Group 2" into the graph panel).

After connection with the second button "Button 2" in "Zone 2", also the function to "Button 1" will be shown, because the rule for action mapping is to combine in a box all functions that are connected to the same output. From this reason the new "Group 2" is automatically replaced by "Group 1" because there contains the same ECG and "Group 2" was destroyed.

With the connection the Devices "Button 2" and "Ballast 1" are automatically added to the zone representation panel. "Button 1" is shown in brackets because its physical existing is in "Zone 1" and is only shown also in "Zone 2" in the graph panel because the action mapping rules.

For "Zone 1" the "Button 2" is also in the graph panel visible, but than in brackets because it is physically located in "Zone 1".

Will the function to "Button 2" be deleted again, than the devices will also be removed from the zone representation panel for "Zone 2" (as long there are not manually added) because there no longer use of this devices.

7.2 Timer & RTC Control

The timer functionality will only be supported with following hardware:

DALI PROFESSIONAL CONT-4 RTC ( EAN10: 4008321 710871)

If the previous DALI PROFESSIONAL Hardware (EAN10: 4008321478948) is used, an error message will be displayed when uploading a configuration containing timers.

Configurations without timers still can be uploaded to the controller.

The RTC functions must be enabled for the visibility in the tree.

What is the action


v.2.0 46/87

7.2.2 Time switch

The time switch has like a normal switch two states: On and Off. For each days, can be set up to one on switch time and one off switch time. With this it can be on only on some days of the week or the on state can be longer as one day.

The dynamical behavior of the time switch is similar to two time events actions for on and off. Only if the time point reached the function will execute. In the time between the light can changed by any other functionality (button, motion sensor…). The main difference is the power on behavior. For the time switch it will be checked was the last action before the actual time the on or off action.

To get more than on one time interval on the day more than one time switch can be combined with one function.

7.4.5.3 Special function double light

By generating of tunable white with two ECG it is possible to leave temporary this mode and use both channel to get the maximal light output.

7.4.5.4 Central control function

The easiest way to central function is to reuse the same button in different action mappings by using of clear on/off functions. In this case the detail parameter for each action mapping can be different. The disadvantage is that the toggle function can make no synchronisation between the different lamps (for example with one button press one lamp go on and the other goes off).

Reuse of the same input for central

function.


v.2.0 68/87

If the toggle function needed than must be use for the central functionality on function by reuse of outputs in different action mappings.

7.4.6 Daylight simulation

8. Test functions

8.1 ECG

To test the function of a luminaire select a single ECG and change to the register Device test.

Basic testing functions are On / OFF and query the actual light level. Also flashing and renaming are possible functions. The testing functions stops when another device is selected or the operation mode of the system is continued by pressing on Go on.

By selecting an ECG groups all lights will flash when the blink test function is activated.

Selecting the main node for the ECG in the device tree, all ECG can be switched on or off together.

Also the following activities can be started:

If you’re changing the light through the test function the controller is stopped and had to be restarted manually by pressing the “On” button

The current light value can be queried without interrupting the controller

Open ECG lamp error dialog

ECG localization


v.2.0 83/87

8.2 ECG lamp failure dialog EVG

With open of the ECG lamp failure dialog all ECG will be checked for lamp errors and the results will be shown. By a button the test can be repeated. Typical the ECG can only detect the lamp error if the lamp on. By a button all lamps can be switched on.

8.3 Coupler

With selecting of a single input in the tree device type dependent test functions are possible in the device test panel. The test will be finished with selecting of any other device.

Input events can be simulated.

Test functions can change the coupler configuration and for this the controller will be

stopped.

For sensors, the led on the sensor can be switched on.


v.2.0 84/87

8.4 Check of light sensors

The dialog for light sensor checking can be open over the icon . In this dialog will show all actual sensor light level values.

8.5 Event Monitor

Messages from event generating inputs (button, motion sensors) can be visualized in the event monitor.

The date in the list can be deleted by open the context menu in the list (by right mouse click) and select "Clear".

Passive monitoring of the light level sensor by using of the spy function

Active scan for actual light sensor values

Filter to show only the values of used light level sensors.

Start test by the start button and go back into normal state by "Go on Button"

9. Appendix

9.1 Create diagnose file

During the DALI pro tool is used log data will be generated in the background in the path:

C:\Users\[Benutzername]\Documents\OSRAM\DaliProfessional_v2

Path

Log Log data files in *csv format.

Spy DALI spy files from the upload or device search if the feature “Extended log function” enabled.

Upload Copies of the project file as archive for each upload. The project file names are automatically extended by date and time. The files with the extension “*.osrdp2u” are write protected from the tool.

For analyzing from all stored files can automatically be generated a diagnose ZIP file, over the “About

dialog”, with the icon and tab “Diagnose”.

Helper to found the created diagnose file with the MS-Explorer

Create diagnose file


v.2.0 86/87

9.2 Firmware update

The firmware update dialog will be open if a to the tool version incompatible firmware detected. This check will be done before the DALI devices search or the upload starts. Additional the dialog can be open by the menu icon

For the development and demo version the firmware version range 3.20 - 3.49 will be used. This firmware version range can be only used with the DALI Pro v2 PC tool demo versions.

The first release version of the firmware will starts with 3.60 and is than usable for the old PC tool version 1.6.x and the new version 2.1.x.

The actual firmware is included in the PC tool. Optional it is possible to open firmware "*.ofw" files for the update.

During the update the DALI voltage will be switched off. The behavior of the ECG depends of the settings of the parameter "System Failure Behavior". If is set "Go to level" and 100 %, the light will go on.

After the update the ECG with the property "Power On Behavior" set "Go to last level" will go to the state before the update was started. Optional can the stored light state for these ECG set to on. If set the property to "Go to level" the ECG will apply this level.

Property with effect to firmware update

Properties with effects to controller restart and upload

Optional to load firmware in the "*.ofw" format After update set the last

stored light state to on.


v.2.0 87/87

9.3 Set controller back to plug & play mode

The actual configuration on the controller can be deleted and set the controller back into the plug & play mode by the menu function:

The open dialog offers the selection for reset also ECG and couplers.

9.4 Import from DALI pro tool version 1.x

Project files with the extension "*.osrdpc" from the program version 1.x can be imported. Following data will be adopted:

- ECG names

- Coupler input names

- Room name as zone name

- Basic functions and parameters to button, presence detection and light sensor

Complicate and time delayed functions can't be imported. In any case manual rework is necessary.
